Today i still remember a great sound, not the best but the most emotional, with jazz music with this configuration:
Grado hf-2 recabled and balanced with moon-audio black dragon and ttvj flat pads.
The amplifier was little-dot mk VI
A middle price configuration with a great sound

2 years after it got torn into 3 (or more) pieces by my dog, the iGrado live again. It's a bit brighter than what I remember (could be the pads, could be the new cable), but it's still very much a Grado. And it's gotten 3 times more comfortable than before.
 
It's all thanks to the wife who found me a pair of cheap, defective Chinese headphones so that I can get the headband to replace the old one.

Rejoice..
Yes they are indeed a beautiful pair of headphones. Mine came balanced but I went back to default.

Alota, do you find with flats the bass overwhelming? I am using sennsheiser inverse quarter mod and they sound superb. Very detailed and yet no bass dominance.

Are you the one who won them for $707? I wanted them too but lost out on them by a couple of bucks! I guess I can set my sights on the PS1000e now. I already have my GS2Ke (balanced) and the DS2012. Happy Listening!!!!!

Yeah I ended up winning them. Sorry! I was watching those things for the whole 10 days making sure ingot them lol. I hopefully didn't over pay but they are supposedly never used from what she told me when I messaged the seller.

I've nerv heard them before. I became interested bc of the guy on here who had all the graphs and says they r the best ones ever so I hope I like them.

I had some ps1000es but they were too refined for me if that makes sense. I prefer my rs1is to them I think anyways. Not enough oomph or treble or something in the ps1000es to me.

Ill know right when I put them on if I will like the sound. I usually don't listen for too long before I know I want to sell some headphones lol.

Congratulations!!! I'm sure you'll like them. Do you still have the Graphs to post here? I loved my RS1is too but I just couldn't get around the on-ear comfort issues I had with them.

I don't have them. I think it's Ruthandjohn is his user name or something like that I can't find it on my little phones screen. He has all the graphs on them. I just remember he said the gs1000is had the best transparency so that made me want them.

I've only ever owned the 325e rs1is and ps1000es. I'm working my way through the grado lineup it seems.
